  11. Self Introspection?

    I dislike how we have no control over what happens to us as children because those experiences form the core of who we are as adults. It’s hard to unlearn these behaviors & learn healthier habits. However, if we choose to remain the same person, to what end?

  12. Life Lately

    This is life lately & a bit of why I have been absent on here. Anyways, cheers to a better mood & a wonderful year ahead! All of us looking for love, may we find & may it be secure, warm & wonderful!🤝🏾🫶🏾 IG & TikTok:@kymahthis PS: I like TikTok now😂😂, original content platform!

  13. Skincurrrr orrrr??

    Yup, you read right! Skincare abi you hate yourself? I think the funniest people are those who believe beauty is fair or light skin. Please educate yourselves & follow @theskinpriest & @iameniolao, they are doing the job of educating people on how to care for themselves properly. A word is enough...

    The year is winding up & what better way to end it than me b*tching about how terrible adulthood & family is? Enjoy✨💕

  16. Love Bombing

    “When we marry, our kids will be smart” said a man that I just met last week. Sir, disappear in my front! Nobody is desperate for marriage here plis🙏🏾 Shine your eye dears, love bombing is a manipulative tactic to push you into a toxic relationship. Dira!!!

  17. Dating in Lagos Pt 2

    Hey! Been long you saw me but na Lagos cause am. I’m not describing much here, just know that the dating pool is nonsense. Doings from there should not shock you🌚…btw, I just remembered the white toad I saw is called Tadpole😂😂. Anyway, listen & be blessed😁😁

  18. Dating in Lagos Pt 1

    Update ooo…shine your eye! Dating a Lagos person is not for the weak my love😩 There are sooo many concepts & what what that they’ll try to use & chop you or your money. My love, SHINE YA EYEEEE🫂🥲

  19. Healing or Whatever…

    Healing is not a straight path & I just realized it. Vulnerability is not a weakness. Admitting that you’re slipping & asking for support from friends is not weakness. Healing is messy & by all means, take your sweet time Baby❤️ BTW, Love you Precious💕…thank you for love letter😁🥺❤️

  20. Audacitayyyyyy

    Hi guys! First off, I used my mic wrongly and all the sounds are so loud. I’m so sorry🥲😭 Plus, send me love msgs so I can add to the beginning of episodes naaa🥺🥺🥺 Anyway, did you guys get the update??? Bambiala is now a personality trait. Material gurlllllll…purrrrr isonuuuu😅 Who needs to...

    In a society where we are conditioned & groomed to be mothers & wives, choose to be more! Explore, travel, live independently, date for the fun of it, go on unplanned weekend trips, girl trips etc before choosing to share your life with another person. You’re young only once…enjoy each year! Make...

  26. Martians vs Venusians

    Heavy stuff. Yes, that’s all. It comes in 3 parts because I kept adding to the episode. Also, I sniffed a lot because it’s morning & I have asthma mahn…clogged airways. Please help me to manage🙏🏾

  28. Dealing with Childhood Trauma

    Warning ⚠️ My eyes got blurry with tears while preparing for this & my heart broke over & over as I recognized some things.

  29. Covid vaccine reaction x Friendship 101

  31. Friendship in Disguise

    Aka Weray dey Disguise! Hey You, did you miss me? No? Ugh, never mind that. I’m here again with something that affects all of us regardless of gender.

  33. An Episode About Mango🥭

    Yup...you read right. This is an episode about mangoes & the role genotype plays in relationships but yeah Mango🥭

  34. Age Disparity in Relationships

    “Sugarbaby”, “Sugardaddy”, “Gigolo”, “Old Cargo”, “Gold Digger” etc are a part of the many words used to describe people in relationships with older or younger people. Should Age really matter in affairs of the heart? Does a huge age difference play a major role in relationships? Are the concerns...

  38. Trolling Your Ex; Yay or Nay?

    Pained? Heartbroken? Sad? Crying? Tired of the flashbacks? Don’t let the pain push you into becoming a bully on the internet. It may seem like a good idea but it is not. It takes you back on your healing journey, makes you look extremely foolish & incapable of emotional control.

  41. Sho Necestry???// random ramble

    That tweet you saw that annoyed you, do you need to react? Is it necessary to react?? Ask yourself. Why don’t you feel the need to protect your peace on social media? There are the “block” & “mute” buttons to sanitize your TL, so use them instead of engaging in meaningless word war with…

  44. Don’t Take Him For Granted

    It’s okay to opt out of a relationship that you no longer excites you. It’s NOT okay to remain in one that you want out of & continue to inflict pain on the other party. In this episode, I’m for the Men who have been hurt by the ladies (they loved) who couldn’t be honest with them.
